They sell everything you need to install the oil pressure gauges in an autometer gauges install kit. They sell the whole kit at most big autopart chainstores for pretty cheap, like $8.00 including the t-fitting, hose, and all different nipples/caps for assorted applications.

If you go to the parts store in Italy looking for Olds parts and they can't find anything make sure the counter guy types "Oldsmobile" into the computer and not "Oldsomobile".
The stores there would have metric fittings but if the gauges are metric they may have an adapter.
The NPT male to metric female adapter is a tough one to find here.
A hardware store or plumbing supply there may have something but that fitting but is a specialty type, most any place here would have a female tee and short nipple.
You want to keep the oil pressure light working and have the gauge also I take it?
Summit Racing and places like that ship internationally?

Summit sends in Italy, but I could not find the connection, perhaps the name was wrong, that it takes to mount an extension cord, because the thread is short.
you can find the extension cord?
thanks also I can buy from Summit

I've seen people use a small piece of steel pipe to raise the "T" or even the sending unit up above the waterpump. Is the male threads on your T part of the brass piece, or are they threaded into it? Could you replace them with a short pipe nipple that's threaded on each end? John

yes John
the male braid to the big block and the T is all in brass, could be used the braid of the pressur swicth, to cut it and to braise it to the T but I am afraid that does not hold.
this you say that it can go, it is higher

And the '80 - '84 Olds Regency's (probably the Delta's too) with the guage package have the very same elevated extention brass fitting (elbow) as used on the '68 Olds with rally packs... PN 401559
